Bad Day

    Hi there,

    Just kind of want to get this off my chest and maybe hear if others have experienced similiar. Ok I admit it was a struggle to get up and go to work today - was tired and just not in the mood but I did anyways. If I am in a bad mood I don't take it out on others and try and get on as best I can. Two work colleagues were both extremely rude to me for no obvious reason and I have come home almost in tears. One I don't really like and has her own problems so I don't really care as much. The other is a friend so I was really taken aback when she just snapped at me for no reason and was quite rude on several other occasions. I feel annoyed that others take their moods out on me. Would I be better just snapping at everyone else when I am having a bad day? Has anyone else ever felt like there's one rule for others and one rule for you?
    Sometimes it just doesn't feel like life is fair.
    Thanks for reading this moan!

    Just relax and get a good sleep tonight. Lots of people are like this, and don't have a right to it's just lie ins weekend and back to work Mondays, obvious really! Don't bother snapping back, you'll only feel worse and make a worse atmosphere for the people around you.

    Don't take it personally... while one shouldn't be taking their personal business into work, it happens.

    Unfortunately some people don't have the capability to let their stress/anger/emotion out in other ways like a physical activity for example and sadly they take it out on others.

    Don't snap back though; either stay clear and avoid the confrontation and let it blow over and maybe ask them if they're ok at a later stage; flash them a smile or something and be on your way. In any case they could be thinking badly of what they did and feel bad about it.
